Remember to connect the white wire, the 4th wire, to (+) supply The very first time the sensor is powered up, the sensor will automatically adapt to the surroundings and calculate an optimal sensitivity by itself – no matter what kind of plastic material to be detected. As long as the white wire is connected to (+) supply, the sensor will be locked and be in running mode. |**New**|**Action**|**Description of sensor setup**| |---|---|---| |First time<br>calibration|New sensor|Factory settings| ||Install the sensor in the application|-| ||Connect the sensor electrical.

You have now activated a new Self-Teach and the sensor will now re-calibrate and calculate a new sensitivity according to the application. Be sure that the application is empty – no object to detect. |**Self-Teach**|**Action**|**Description of sensor setup**| |---|---|---| |Force new Self-<br>Teach|Disconnect white wire|-| ||Connect white wire to (+) supply|Self-Teach: Red LED blinking The sensor is<br>now in running mode| ||Power OFF|-| ||Power ON (Startup delay 600 ms)|The sensor is still in running mode| **2** Specifications are subject to change without notice (21.11.05) **CA, M30, M32, DC, Self-Teach** Every time the white wire is being disconnected from (+) supply, the Self-Teach function will be initiated and take place when connecting it again to (+) supply |**Self-Teach**|**Action**|**Description of sensor setup**| |---|---|---| |Force new Self-<br>Teach|Power OFF|-| ||Disconnect white wire|-| ||Power ON (Startup delay 600 ms)|-| ||Connect white wire to (+) supply|Self-Teach: Red LED blinking<br>The sensor is now in running mode| ## **Remote teach-in** It is possible to teach-in either background or object, like the CAxxCLL sensors with normal teach-in function. ## **Teach-in Background** |**Teach-in**|**Action**|**Description of sensor setup**| |---|---|---| |Remote Teach-<br>in background|Disconnect white wire|-| ||Be sure that the application is empty<br>Connect the white wire to (-) supply > 3 sec.<br>Remove the wire during the next 3 seconds.|The red LED will flash once per second<br>Remote teach-in of background| ||Connect white wire to (+) supply|Self-Teach: Red LED blinking<br>The sensor is now in running mode| ## **Teach-in Object** |**Teach-in**|**Action**|**Description of sensor setup**| |---|---|---| |Remote Teach-<br>in object|Disconnect white wire|-| ||Be sure that the application is **with**<br>object.<br>Connect the white wire to (-) supply > 6 sec.<br>Remove the wire during the next 3 seconds.|The red LED will flash twice per second<br>Remote teach-in of object| ||Connect white wire to (+) supply|The sensor is now in running mode| ## **Teach-in Background and Object** |**Teach-in**|**Action**|**Description of sensor setup**| |---|---|---| |Remote Teach-<br>in of back-<br>ground and<br>object|Disconnect white wire|-| ||Background: Be sure that the application is empty.<br>Connect the white wire to (-) supply > 3 sec.<br>Remove the wire during the next 3 seconds.|The red LED will flash once per second<br>Remote teach-in of background| ||Object: Be sure that the application is **with**<br>object.<br>Connect the white wire to (-) supply > 6 sec.<br>Remove the wire during the next 3 seconds.|The red LED will flash twice per second<br>Remote Teach-in of object| ||Connect white wire to (+) supply|The sensor is now in running mode| ## **Toggle between normally open and normally closed** It is possible to toggle between normally open and normally closed by means of the teach-in function. |**Teach-in**|**Action**|**Description of sensor setup**| |---|---|---| |Normally open<br><> Normally<br>closed|Disconnect white wire|-| ||Connect the white wire to (-) supply > 9 sec.<br>Remove the wire during the next 3 seconds.|The red LED will flash three times per sec-<br>ond<br>Toggle between NO and NC| ||Connect white wire to (+) supply|The sensor is now in running mode| **3** Specifications are subject to change without notice (21.11.05) **CA, M30, M32, DC, Self-Teach** ## **Dimensions** **==> picture [460 x 246] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> M30 and M32<br>Cable 91 LED Plug 91 LED<br>e e P e<br>M12 x 1<br>12 12<br>M30 x 1.5 x 50 M30 x 1.5 x 50<br>92,5<br>LED<br>14<br>M32 x 1.5 x 50<br>m ii<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## **Installation Hints** **==> picture [436 x 107] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> To avoid interference from inductive voltage/ Relief of cable strain Protection of the sensing face Switch mounted on mobile carrier<br>current peaks, separate the prox. switch pow-<br>er cables from any other power cables, e.g.<br>motor, contactor or solenoid cables Not correct<br>Correct<br>The cable should not be pulled A proximity switch should not serve as Any repetitive flexing of the<br>mechanical stop cable should be avoided<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## **Deliver Contents y** - Capacitive switch: CA..CLN25BP.. ## **Accessories** - Plugs CON.1A.. series. - Manual - **Packaging:** Cardboard box **4** Specifications are subject to change without notice (21.11.05)

About Novapart
Novapart is a B2B electronic component broker specialising in stock shortages and cost reduction. We source hard-to-find parts and identify compliant alternatives across a catalogue of 540,000+ components from 500+ manufacturers.
Learn more →Stock Shortage Specialist
When a component is unavailable, discontinued or has an unacceptable lead time, we tap into our network of vetted European and Asian distributors to source what you need — without compromising on quality or traceability.
Request a quote →Compliant Alternatives
We identify pin-to-pin, electrically equivalent substitutes that meet the same certifications (RoHS, AEC-Q100, REACH) as your original specification — validated against datasheets, not just part numbers. Often at a lower cost.
